Found Art Friday 160

Dear ones,This week has been hijacked by last week. Low and behold though, it's today already and our found art offering is this special report from Art Ranger's time "at large" creating a collaboration for the Unruly Engagements Conference. From the sound of it, you might hope that the format would be artful and interesting, but nah. While most presenters became podiums-emitting-papers, Nanette Yannuzzi and yours truly performed an art intervention right then and there at 9:30 a.m. on a Saturday morning. Our work in progress consisted of a ten minute video click right here and concurrent performance.

A Chemical W/Rap:

Below was our swag for the viewer participants: A box/toolkit for taking action which contains Postcards from ruined places including addresses of relevant politicians, twitter handles, a pamphlet, a test tube full of a (fictitious) noxious chemicals, etc. It can be good to have some sickening facts in your lap:

Comments welcome, as this project will continue to evolve.

Hope you have a loving week and that something you see wishes to have its picture taken.

About Me

I was raised in Denver, Colorado and come from a pioneer family who required that we climb peaks, swim around lakes and ride bicycles over mountain passes. This thorough physical training fused with my development as an artist.
After fifteen years in San Diego, I now reside in the Salinas/ Monterey region.
I have been a university art lecturer as well as created many workshops for children. I have received several "public art" commissions and been exhibited in museums. I also design poetic contraptions with no commercial intention.
